Hormann Up & Over Doors Technical Information

Up & over garage doors come in two types of gear either Canopy or Retractable. The main difference between the two is in the action the door takes to open. Up & over garage doors come in a variety of materials such as Steel, Timber, Upvc & GRP. All up & over garage doors require a frame to fit to, this can be either Timber or Steel (Steel would be our recommendation).

The information contained on this website for up & over garage doors is based upon the Hörmann up & over garage door.

Long-term performance thanks to excellent technical solutions and uncompromising quality assurance, you receive a 10 year warranty on all sectional doors and 5 years on all Hörmann operators.

The Canopy Gear

Hörmann canopy geared doors are tested and certified according to the high safety requirements and performance characteristics of the European Standard 13241-1. This gives you the reassurance that your purchase of a Hörmann up & over doors is a safe investment. It’s worthwhile making a comparison.

Everything is perfectly matched: the precision vertical track guidance, the smooth running plastic rollers, the plastic profiles down the sides (no steel to steel contact) and the galvanised torsion spring. All this giving the door a smooth, quiet door action.

Hörmann offers a steel fixing frame for all canopy doors. This frame makes an on site timber frame redundant and makes it quick and easy to fit.

Two point locking as standard with hard PVC latches in tough zinc diecast housings that engage automatically and quietly at either side of the door into steel latch keeps.

Four point locking arrangement is available as a factory fitted optional extra.

Factory-fitted profile cylinder locking is as a standard feature. Two keys are provided for outside locking. Inside locking is by a snib positioned on the lockbody. An internal “star” handle is also supplied. Master key locking is an optional feature.
